<p>Search postal locations around your area, all post offices offer different prices. My local town's post office has expensive PO Boxes, but the town next to me had them for half the price my town was charging for. </p>

<p>It's worse in the UK- a box costs £150 for a year now- that's about $200. I felt fine about giving out my address when I lived in a small obscure town that no creepy stranger would bother to visit. I felt differently about it when I was living in London though, it suddenly seemed far too easy to be doorstopped. For a while I was using a studio at an arts place, and using their address as c/o and they didn't mind at all, but when I finished there of course I couldn't do that any more.</p>

<p>$20 for six months is too expensive? That's less than $4 a month.</p>
<p>I've used my home address for years, nothing bad ever happened. The problems come in when you move and the old address is on your work.</p>
